Dem Congressman Warns Of "Mob Scenes" Without "Equity In Society"

McDERMOTT: This whole society is gradually changing in response to what’s going on. Now, we’re in a very difficult period right now, because we have a lot of people who suddenly think it’s all about me. And it isn’t about me; it’s about we. If we don’t take care of one another, and we say everybody’s on their own, then it will simply fall apart as a society: become a mob scene, as it was in Paris if you go see Les Misérables. You can see what the country can become, if you don’t have equity in the society. I don’t want that. I want people to be able to have a peaceful life. And I think our system will work.

Sure they'll riot, in their ghetto that they are afraid to leave to do their rioting.

When was the last time anyone saw them go out in the country to riot? Never?

[Popman]

My exact thought. ..

[TADSLOS]

They aren't that desperate.....yet, and rioting won't be part of that equation.

[YHAOS]

Inciting a riot, Congressman?

[Da Coyote]

Bring it.

May as well get CW-II over as soon as possible so we can start rebuilding asap.

[Mashood]

Doesn’t Mr. Mcdermott know that Les Miserables is fiction.

[Da Coyote]

Forgot to add - don’t even think we’ll consider rebuilding NYC, LA, etc. Level ‘em and salt the ground.

Then burn it again.

We want to remove all vestiges of the ancient, disgraced, and thoroughly unworkable liberalism.

[Beagle8U]

My one hard and fast rule...Never live anywhere that has public transportation. No public transportation = no ghetto trash.

[subterfuge]

And McDermott is going to install himself as the decider of what is equitable, naturally.

[Dick Bachert]

If this idiot thinks the mob scenes in Les Mis are scary, wait until the left intensifies the push to destroy the Second Amendment.

As Jimmy Durante often observed “Ya’ ain’t seen nuttin’ yet”.

[GeronL]

lol. I’m not

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

To what do the numbers refer?

[ArmstedFragg]

He also apparently doesn’t know what happened when the “equality” proponents took control.

[Sooth2222]

Numbers are the vote margin in the 2012 election. eg. in Los Angeles county, Obama won 662,350 more votes than Romney in the 2012 election.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Thanks for the info.

The Les Miserables analogy certainly works if you imagine Obama as Louis XVI and Michelle delivering "Let them eat cake".

But I don't think that's what McDermott, the useful idiot, had in mind.

[MarkL]

Which is why the DHS wants those 7000 select fire M4s, for "protection," while attempting to deny citizens (i.e. taxpayers, home owners, and business owners) the ability to defend themselves from McDermott's mobs.

My wife said to me this morning she didn’t understand why most of the homeless she now sees have cellphones.

I had to explain to her the Obamaphone program. She asked, even with a free phone, how can they pay the monthly bill? I said, I assume we’re the chumps paying it, like everything else.

When we were younger, she was a Democrat. Now she just shakes her head.

This adam henry is lucky our military is so disciplined; I just read today that military pay will be cut (i.e., not the raise they expected). I wonder if this pol can tell me why oh why we simply can't cut the moochers bene's? Riots? Feh, so? America is an armed populace for a reason (hmmm, wonder why they want to take away our "guns"), to stave off tyranny and those who think they should have their way with other's belongings (that includes salaries!!).

Its time the "entitlement" class learn to do without and checkout those plain white wrapper groceries for a change...
